Chapter 341 - 341 Under One Person, a Strange Condition!

341 Under One Person, a Strange Condition!

“Those six women still continued to follow him… A prominent figure who visited the pill pavilion shared this story, so Mr. Long, you must not spread it. It’s not a good influence.”

Qin Huai nodded, unable to hide his shock at the revelation. It seemed that the demon’s intelligence was on par with a human’s, as it was able to bewitch six women into being loyal to it, despite them knowing it was an alien.

“Oh right, how was the demon discovered?” Qin Huai inquired further.

“An important figure of the Ghost Ox sect used the ghost piercing mirror to reveal the demon’s true form.”

Ghost Piercing Mirror… The large sects in Qingzhou City indeed had many tricks up their sleeves.

“Mr. Long, sorry to keep you waiting!” The door was pushed open by the Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary’s Pavilion Master, Fan Ziyu. “The items have been prepared for you. They’re still in the backyard.”

The shopkeeper hastily stood up to make way for the pavilion master. “Mr. Long, you must be careful these days. The outer city is far from peaceful.”

“I’ve been informed by the shopkeeper that he is a person in the middle of the world,” Qin Huai replied with a smile. “Last time, I gave the shopkeeper one million taels of silver. Other than the hundred thousand taels you discounted, I’m still short of eight hundred thousand taels.”

Qin Huai promptly began counting, taking out a thick stack of banknotes totaling 800,000 taels—no more, no less.

Fan Ziyu moistened his hand with saliva before counting the banknotes one by one.

Kaka!

He then tapped the table neatly, and his smile grew brighter. “Mr. Long, don’t take it to heart. This is the pill pavilion’s rule. Even the most familiar old customers must check in person. Otherwise, misunderstandings might arise, and our friendship could be jeopardized, right?”

“Pavilion Master is reliable. I can rest assured,” Qin Huai replied softly. “I’d like to order another hundred pills.” He then handed over one hundred thousand taels as a deposit.

“Excellent!” Fan Ziyu agreed without hesitation.

“But… I have a question for Pavilion Master Fan,” Qin Huai interjected.

“Mr. Long, please ask.” Fan Ziyu chuckled. “We are all friends. If I know the answer, I’ll definitely share it with you.”

“Pavilion Master Fan, I’ve learned that numerous prodigies have mysteriously vanished in recent months. Do you know the reason behind this?” Qin Huai asked solemnly.

Fan Ziyu’s expression immediately turned intriguing upon hearing the question.

“Even if you can’t share everything, you can at least tell me something, right?” Seeing his expression, Qin Huai softened his stance. “For instance, who were the people swallowed by the strange creature? What were their conditions?”

Ever since the battle with Mou Jinfu, which had directly attracted the peculiar green gas, Qin Huai had been feeling uneasy.

“I can only reveal that the monster devoured an expert of the fifth-level bone pattern realm. I really can’t say more.”

“Thank you for informing me!” Qin Huai expressed his gratitude, cupping his fists.

There were far too many people capable of killing him. Even if he faced the threat of being devoured by the strange green gas, Qin Huai knew he still had to cultivate.

Feeling helpless, he acknowledged that there was nothing wrong with continually increasing his strength. As for the rest, they could only handle whatever challenges arose.

Afterward, Qin Huai went to the backyard and placed all one hundred red qi tiger wolf pills into his robe. He quickly disappeared into the night.

“Brother, it’s that person!”

Behind him, two sneaky-looking bone pattern realm men stared at Qin Huai’s back.

“Are you sure it’s that person?” The tall man frowned.

“I can’t be wrong. That kid’s figure is etched in my mind.” The short man licked his lips. “He came out of the pill pavilion’s backyard twice. The treasures he carries must be valuable.”

The two men understood that those who emerged from the Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary’s backyard were typically wealthy but weaker customers. This knowledge was their hard-earned experience over the years.

“But, Brother, it seems we’re not the only ones eyeing this big fish.”

The two glanced towards the end of the alley, where two groups totaling six people were approaching.

“Brother, we’ve been targeting this big fish for quite some time,” the newcomers greeted menacingly.

The two brothers scoffed. “Everyone should understand the rules of the underworld—first come, first served. If the rules were broken, nobody would have food to eat.”

The new groups were somewhat stubborn. “The market isn’t great right now. The rules should change with the times, right?”

“I saw that the person’s footsteps were quite heavy, indicating strong qi and blood. Despite wearing a bamboo hat, a faint aura still emanated from him. It’s clear he’s a master. I’m afraid you two brothers won’t be able to handle him alone.”

The brothers considered their words and knew they weren’t talking nonsense. Moreover, these two groups seemed determined, making it unlikely they could be sent away.

“Decide quickly, or that person will get away,” the newcomers urged impatiently.

“Fine! We’ll cooperate this time,” the brothers finally agreed. As they turned around, their expressions changed.

“It’s poison…” One man’s face turned pale, but before he could finish speaking, he collapsed.

Just as their auras rose, a figure flashed before their eyes.

Blood splattered in the moonlight as Qin Huai searched the bodies of the seven men, his expression indifferent. Five had just entered the bone pattern realm, while two were in the blood refinement realm.

“Only eighty thousand taels…” Qin Huai pursed his lips. “Looks like the market is really not good.”

Regardless, he pocketed all 80,000 taels, knowing that even a small gain was still worthwhile.

At the fourth-level bone pattern realm, combined with Qin Huai’s poison technique, there was no need to use any king’s force. These first-level bone pattern realm experts couldn’t resist him.

He released a poisonous mist from his sleeve, and the seven corpses began to dissolve bit by bit. By the time Qin Huai left the alley, the ground was spotless, as pristine as the bright moon without a speck of dust.

“With these one hundred red qi tiger wolf pills, I shouldn’t have any problem cultivating the four-directional tiger-wolf technique to the fourth-level bone pattern realm… Looks like I need to find a way to improve the nine dragons true qi technique.”
